From darkness fell the Andii
Thier leader was quite handy
his friends they called him Rake
and his enemies did quake
His swords called Dragnipur
And his heart is DragniPURE
they say he is ascended
his search for mother dark is not ended
But for the warrens, he has found a cure
you may doubt, but of this fact I am sure
The ascendant's birth is a birth worth telling
Don't know if I'll buy what you are selling
His moon mountain cost quite a bit
The Spawn floats above, making everyone scared as shit
His skin as black as night, his hair as white as light
The sword across is back, chains sound, though none in sight
But for all this gallantry, the Rakester had one flaw:
A great falling out with his less awesome maw.
She spread her legs just one too many times
and jiggled and wiggled and waggled her spine
"If I give her a crescent she'll be mine,"
Said Rake as he sipped on a bottle of Wine.
Shadowthrone hesitates when he meets Rake:
A vision of cats being drowned at the Lake
Oh no, he thinks, fearing for Trake
The carts out of control, step on the brake
Out of control, the cart is careening
A raven looks on with beak all a-preening
While the Crip God with gangs signs was gang member screening
And a preacher approaches, all disco-move seeming
CHAPTER 3: Rake Meets a Pilgrim
Rake listens "Everybody was sword fighting"
"why oh why didn't i have a quiet night in?"
